Alex Katz, LHP, Baltimore Orioles

Baltimore Orioles left-handed pitcher Alex Katz throws in relief during a March 21, 2018 spring training game against the Minnesota Twins. +++ Baltimore Orioles left-handed pitching prospect Alex Katz throws for the Orioles' High-A spring squad during a March 21, 2018 spring training game at the minor league backfields on the road at CenturyLink Sports Complex against the Minnesota Twins' High-A spring squad in Fort Myers, Florida. A native of Manhasset, New York, the left-handed reliever Katz was originally drafted by and property of the Chicago White Sox, before he was traded to the Baltimore Orioles in May of 2017 for future considerations. In 25 relief appearances with High-A Frederick of the Carolina League since joining the Baltimore Orioles' organization after the traded, Katz finished his summer 3-2 with a 5.57 ERA; in 42.0 innings pitched, too, he allowed 43 hits and 35 walks while only striking out 34 hitters. A quirky lefty with some deception through his arm action and herky-jerky deliver, particularly against left-handed hitters, Alex Katz boasts a 90-93 mph fastball, and he pairs it off with a big, sweeping, nearly horizontal at times slider, which comes in at 79-82 mph.

We cover minor league prospects all across the country and all year round, from spring training through the full summer season and on into fall instructional leagues and the Arizona Fall League in October and November. In our first calendar year alone, Baseball Census published videos of more than 1,500 minor league prospects at all levels — from Triple-A to rookie leagues — and all leagues and locations — from the International League to the Arizona League. We’re increasingly focused on publishing prospect video of amateur (high school, junior college, college) baseball prospects ahead of the MLB Draft, as well. All of our videos are shot in pristine 1080p high definition and edited professionally, which consistently gives us the best and highest-quality videos that are publicly available anywhere. Furthermore, we’re on-location covering more than 200 games every year, which allows us to publish deeper, longer, and more insightful scouting videos than the short and poorly-shot clips one typically finds on YouTube. We publish between three and eight new baseball prospect videos every single day of the year — far more than any other outlet covering baseball prospects — and we’re proud to have produced 750,000 views and over 20,000 hours of watch time in just our first calendar year on YouTube. By the end of 2018, we’ll have published videos of nearly 4,000 different prospects from all 30 Major League organizations and a handful of amateur schools and teams.
